Choice cut: The ethereal electro sounds of and Anime aesthetic video for “Genesis” will either leave you enchanted by 26-year-old Canadian Claire Boucher or have you wondering when you fell out of step with the youth.

Choice quote: “Embarrassingly, I recorded the entire album on GarageBand. I really want to establish that I no longer use GarageBand,” Grimes told UK music and fashion mag Clash in 2012. She was referring to her third record, Visions, which was recorded in three weeks (nine days of that period were reportedly devoid of food, sleep, and human contact).

Need to know: With her focus on production and soundscapes, the inevitable Björk and Kate Bush comparisons have sprung up already. Get ready for even more when album four is released in September (or so it has been reported). That being said, we wonder if either of them would play Taylor Swift during an Ibiza DJ set for Boiler Room, as Grimes did last year.
